Possible Causes
Faulty communication between main control and submodules (e.g., inverter, UI), damaged communication harness, control board failure
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Disconnect power before accessing electronics.
Check communication wiring:
- Remove the top cover and locate the harnesses linking the main control board to other modules (UI, inverter, sensor boards).
- Reseat all multi-pin connectors and inspect for bent pins or corrosion.
- Look for any pinched or damaged harnesses along their routing.
- Perform a power reset and test again.
- If F15 remains, one of the electronic modules is likely defective. Professional diagnostic tools are recommended to identify the faulty module.
